Examples of how you've implemented automatic test rerun on failures
Hi, I found some old threads on rerunning tests automatically on failure, and know this is an open feature request. We are implementing our own solution to automatically rerunning failed tests, but I wanted to see if others could share what they implemented to inform what we do. What we have started implementing is using the OnStopTest event to see if the test failed and then rerunning it using information in Project.TestItems.Current. That seems like it will work well enough though as-is it limits us to one rerun per test and though that's what we'd like to start with it would be nice to easily allow for more than one rerun in the future. The other sort of tricky thing we are doing is we want to suppress errors using the Error events so that if the test passes on the second attempt it shows up as passing in TestComplete. I think that will work but it's messy with edge case issues. I don't expect all the little issues to be resolved, just wondering what other people have done and things that worked well or didn't work well. Code examples would be great when possible. We are using python scripting in TestComplete 14.3 automating a Windows desktop application. Thanks, AdamSolved1.3KViews0likes3Comments
